So…I was chatting with some younger folks about great singers. I mentioned Linda Ronstadt….and they all asked, “who”? Well….I played this…never mind the countless hits she has had over the years. They were all blown away.

How is that a publication like Rolling Stone gets it right when so many other news orgs are failing at real journalism & keeping it real—and so damn obvious about it?

If you have had any doubts that Musk has transformed Twitter into a far-right fever swamp, there should be none now.
The question is: Why do so many public figures, gov't officials, and brands continue to post on there? If you wouldn't open an account on Truth Social or Rumble, why remain on X?

Elon Musk has changed his X profile.
His avatar is now Pepe the Frog, a mascot adopted by white supremacists.
His name is a Latinisation of “Kek”, a phrase used by neo-Nazis.
Musk has also backed AfD in Germany, the political home for racists.
The man is telling us explicitly what he’s about.

Trump claims crime at all time high, which is a lie. Homicides were at 5.66 when Trump took office and 7.22 in 2020 when he lost the election. It was back down to 6.61 by 2023 with early data showing big decrease in 2024. The highest murder states are Republican: MS, LA, AL.
